Fun With Ellipses

"The Yankees are engaged in optional batting practice at the moment at Tropicana Field. Here’s how you can tell it’s optional. Alberto Gonzalez, Jose Molina, Chad Moeller and Shelley Duncan are the only players here . . . the other guys are lazy dogs."

you could do it with game channel on espn. then you could just make shit up. Lets say Jeter reaches on an error by Lugo. you could say something like Jeter hits a routine grounder to Lugo, but gives him a super gangster stare, forcing lugo into a throwing error. That actually might be more amusing then blogging about what actually happened.

you know, I think i should have rethought my example by using mike lowell instead of Lugo. Lugo doesnt need jeter staring him down to make an error. But yeah, I think it would be cool if either you, or your brother, live blogged some rivalry games.

OMG - that would be so fun to do a live blog of Sux vs Yanks in July. Papelbon would give a good show being an a$$ - maybe we'll get lucky and he'll break an ankle while he's river dancing, Youklis would look so UGLY, Manny (who I LOVE ~ sorry!) would be fantasic yet stoned, Ortiz would still be screwing up his hitting because he can't find the Dick's Sporting Goods Sign on the Green Monster, and that Casey dude would be like "Hey, Holler! They call me the Mayor!" to every Mo-Fo that reached first base. You guys GOTTA do it!!!

OH Hell Yeah!!! You KNOW he was!!!That's so funny you mentioned that. I just did one of those myspace surveys about baseball and I had to answer what I would do with my favorite players in a bar:Jeter: listen and b.s. about the cool lives we leadSizemore: buy him a drink - he always looks worried and uptightManny: go out back and smoke some of that Dominican ganja that puts him in that fabulous Manny world that we would all love to be in!!!
